Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed marketing manager position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined, based on the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, that a bachelor's degree is not the normal minimum requirement for marketing manager positions, which are often filled by promoting experienced staff. The petitioner also failed to show that a degree requirement is common in the industry for parallel positions.
